I'll be in the PodcastZone at Dragonmeet again this year! Please come and say hi and nerd out about TTRPGs with me! I'll be repping my show, A Game of One's Own, and trying my best not to bankrupt myself by picking up every solo and duet game I see.
I'm so excited to be back at Dragonmeet this year, in its new venue, London Excel!

You can find me in the PodcastZone, organised by the amazing @fkth.bsky.social. I'll have flyers, badges, stickers and one-page RPGs for you to peruse!

This is the product of my newfound obsession with the X-Men, combined with @potatocubed.bsky.social's brilliant game See Issue X. I think the X-Man I was most inspired by will be pretty obvious...
